Building the Future King Open & CSUS Campus

Cambridge has big plans for 850 Cambridge Street, which has now been cleared and prepared for the construction of a brand new campus for King Open School and Cambridge Street Upper School.

Design renderings for the school portions of project were released over the summer, and the project will also house a DHSP Community School and Afterschool programs, as well as new Valente Branch Library, Gold Star Pool, and Cambridge Public Schools administration building.

According to the City, the architects hope to improve traffic patterns around the school buildings and to improve the visibility and access to Donnelly Field and the Frisoli Center. The project is scheduled to be completed in time for the opening of school in September 2019.
